WELCOME TO ST MARGARET'S COMMUNITY CHURCH
MEETING TOGETHER
We meet together in the hall every Sunday at 4pm.
The service is still streamed 'live' each Sunday so if you can't book a seat with us you won't miss out!
Booking your place needs to be done via Church Suite. Please email Sue Lynes and she will send you the link to enable you to book your seat for a Sunday service, or for any events that are going on in the church
We offer the community a chance to come together and worship with others in a very relaxed and informal way. Our service is family-friendly and we have provision for children.
Our style of worship is lively and informal but with a real passion to encounter God and enjoy his presence.
We have a real passion and heart for the community. We aim to create a community where everybody feels welcome and experience the love of Christ. We meet every Sunday.
BOOKING YOUR SEAT -DURING COVID19 TIMES
As the church building itself is under full refurbishment (new worship space, cafe, children's soft-play area and community shop), we are now using the hall which has the capacity of holding up to 30 people only.
